What Our Community Say
“My little boy loves going to Play Pals Nursery Hindley Green! The staff are so kind and caring. They create a warm and safe environment where children feel happy and supported. The activities are fun and engaging, helping my son learn and grow. He enjoys playing, singing, and making new friends. Since starting, he has become more confident and independent. Overall, I highly recommend Play Pals to any parent looking for a loving and safe place for their child.’’
‘’A fantastic place for your little one, the structure of the nursery works great for our little girl, she has come out of her shell and become more confident in the very short period she has been attending, and the staff are lovely and helpful. We looked at several other options before visiting here and we were made to feel welcome from the start. Highly recommend’’
‘’My little girl really enjoys her days at Play Pals Nursery, her confidence has grown and she loves socialising with her little friends the nursery programme is well structured and the meals they provide are really tasty. There are lots of activities going on indoors and out the staff always have time to speak to you about any worries, you have just an all-round amazing nursery.’’
‘’Lovely nursery! Very friendly staff, clean and amazing settings. We were struggling to potty train our son and they helped do it. Food variety is great, our son loves snacks there as well. Would love our son to stay here longer but he is heading to pre-school! Thank you for everything.’’
‘’I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude towards the entire staff at PlayPals. Their welcoming, kind, and caring nature has made a significant positive impact on our son's experience at Play Pals. He is truly enjoying and learning every day and attending each day with increasing happiness.’’

Meet Gary and Gingerbread Man A big shout out to one of our children bringing in their Large African Snails into nursery here at Play Pals Hindley. We looked at them up close and personal by using the magnifying glasses and gave them some of their favourite foods of red and green peppers. #playpalshindley #homefromhome #largeafricansnails #exploring

This week in our 0-2 setting, some of the children have enjoyed singing our Nursery Rhyme "wind the bobbin up". We explored different activities using bobbins and they loved getting messy rolling them through the paint and stamping them. #QUESTtrust #EarlyYearsToEmployment #EarlyYearsAtPlayPals #LearningIsFun
With our sound this week being 't' Miss Becka surprised us today with her Tortoise Sheldon We were all very quiet and gentle with him, we stroked him and talked about what he eats and where he lives. Thankyou Miss Becka #playpalsabram
At Play Pals Hindley we brush our teeth after dinner every day. This week we all got a little pack each and in it was a new toothbrush, some toothpaste and some helpful leaflets helping us to clean our teeth and keep them healthy and strong. #playpalshindley #pearlywhites #bigandstrong #teeth
The lovely Terry, Lesley and Teddy came to visit us this week at Play Pals Hindley to help teach our children how to cross the road safely. We have to... Think - is it safe to cross here? Stop - do not step out into the road Look - check to see that no vehicles are coming Listen - make sure nothing moving is approaching the road We each got a little story book called 'Teddy Takes A Walk' to take home with us to read with our grownups and we got to try on the hi vis jacket and hold the lollypop stick #playpalshindley #learnwithus #thinkstoplooklisten #roadsafety
